The key word is VINs, plural. Now your messing with multiple vehicle identification numbers. I guess the most important part in all of this is accurate and clear disclosure. Then let the buyer decide what it's worth to him.

I never said VINs. I said one VIN tag on the dash needed to be removed to do a proper dash panel replacement because of the original was rusted.

My example did not mention messing with multiple vehicle identification numbers.

In response to that you said.... "Yup, no longer a COPO. It may have COPO parts and documents related to those parts but thats it."

So is it mutable VINs being messed with, removed and replaced, or switched to a different body, that makes you have that opinion,..... or does even just one removed and replaced on the same car for repairs make you think that also?

I'd say it comes down to this.

And - each scenario is different.

Without a doubt, but there are many, many honest car restorers out there, and car owners spending tons of money to keep cars as original and true as they can be. And most states even allow a VIN to be removed by licensed shops of course, to have proper repairs done to the vehicle.

I have ordered new VIN decals for vehicles that received new or used doors here at the shop where the original, being a decal, gets voided if you try to remove it. So to say a car is not what it is, because a VIN tag was removed and installed again after a repair is silly.
